INDIANAPOLIS — As IndyCar drivers return to the track, another May tradition returns to 13News.
13 Sports director Dave Calabro spent a little time talking to the drivers over some Milk & Cookies.
They dished on who they would want to play them in a movie and about their driving.
What would your steering wheel say about your driving?
Dave: If your steering wheel could talk, what would it say about you and your driving?
Scott McLaughlin: Stop punching me because I always bat the steering wheel when something goes bad. No, but I think it would say that I’m pretty smooth as well.
Hélio Castroneves: Don’t, don’t, don’t go there (laughs). Nope, not turning right now buddy (laughs). Stay straight, yeah, probably going to say that.
Kyle Kirkwood: Go! What are you doing?
Dave: Are you nice to your steering wheel?
Alex Palou: I am. I don’t hit it. No, no, no. I’m very kind. No way. I respect the steering wheel on the car so much. I have so much respect. I never hit them. Never ... ever.
Dave: If your steering wheel could talk, what would your steering wheel say?
Rinus Veekay: You are a crazy son of a b***h (laughs). I think.
Who would play you in a movie?
Castroneves: Good hair, good accent. I think, I don’t know. I used to say Tom Cruise, but not it’s not anymore.
Scott Dixon: It was Brad Pitt, you know. Not Tom Cruise, but you can see the likeness of Brad Pitt.
Dave: Yep, I could see that. That would work.
Sting Ray Robb: I would say Captain America. Whoever that guy is. Chris Evans. I would like to say him … but I feel that’d be false.
Dave: Because you are Captain America?
Robb: That’s right. That’s me.
Veekay: Tom Cruise.
Dave: Oh, that’s a good one. I like that. Why do you like him?
Veekay: He’s Tom Cruise!
Ericsson: Ryan Gosling.
Dave: Oh, that’s a good one. You like him?
Ericsson: Girls say he’s good looking, so … you know, that’s a good thing.
Dave: Let’s see. Who would play you in a movie?
Colton Herta: You!
Dave: Come on, man.
Herta: Yeah, you’re outgoing.
Dave: I couldn’t … yeah … well, I couldn’t …
Herta: You’re basically an actor. You go t… TV presenter. It’s close.
Felix Rosenqvist: Bradley Pitt.
Dave: He would be the man.
Rosenqvist: Yeah.
Will Power: I love it when people say I look like Tom Cruise.
Dave: That’s a good one. You do, yeah …
Power: I guess.
Dave: You don’t buy that?
Power: Oh, yeah. I don’t know. Yeah, I guess.
